Corporate responsibility from the experts, GMIC

The Sustainability Center at IMEX America is powered by GMIC (Green Meeting Industry Council).

The Sustainability Center gives both exhibitors and buyers a chance to increase their knowledge of environmental and social responsibility and how to apply it to meetings and incentive travel programs. The Center will offer Green Power sessions, expert advice, tool kits and case studies.

Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss their particular CSR program, understand how to develop one from scratch, or simply pick up tips for improvements. The Center will provide an essential aid in helping organizations to remain competitive and increase value by staying on top of trends and challenges.
